Coming from Faro airport: Once you are at the roundabout leading to the motorway, head into the direction of Sagres and Vila do Bispo on the N 125. You will soon get into a newly built roundabout (directions: Lagos/A22; Funchal; Vila do Bispo/Sagres; Luz). Take the exit to “Luz” (the one after the exit to “Sagres/Vila do Bispo”) and stay on that road. After 5 minutes, you will see white buildings on the left-hand side and at the entrance you see a small sign „Quinta Formosinho“. That’s your base for the next days. If you drive past the brown sign „Praia“, you have missed us, because we are located 100m in front of the sign.

Follow this street until you see a wall saying “PARAISO DA LUZ” on the left-hand side. Turn left and, directly afterwards, turn right and the 2nd street left again. Almost there! At the next street turn right and you’ll see Vila Bela Luz at the end of the street on the right side. Notice that the entrance is around the corner. Welcome!
